​Now that winter is kicking in here in New York, layering has taken on a whole new meaning. I’m not talking turtlenecks under sweaters or dresses over pants, I’m talking about jeans...simple and everyday blue jeans. We’ve seen them flare, bootcut, skinny, boyfriend and cropped but this year it’s layered.

When R13 released its double layer hem jeans last year I was skeptical. I wasn’t sure how to feel about having a skirt/denim duo. But like any other trend, eventually we catch on and either choose to be apart of the movement or wait to see how long it takes to fades out. I decided to jump on board after scrolling through my feed during fashion month and sliding through all the galleries of streetstyle looks.

If I’m going to jump on board here Y not go all out with Parisian label Y/Project. I spotted these layered jeans browsing through one of my favorite department stores and eventually pulled the trigger. I loved the high waisted fit and the statement it made as people tried to figure out what I was wearing while strolling around downtown New York. I chose to pair my jeans with a simple black turtleneck and boots so my bottom wouldn’t have to compete with my torso but I couldn’t pass up on wearing a black hooded trench from EFM to complete this look. Hope you guys like all my layers! -Slightly Flirty c/o Gina Papa xoxo
